Joe,
"Toes" is a regular here (Little Toes), and he is very aware of my regular touting of Badger Ordnance mounts. Have to admit I REALLY like those mounts, why - because they are what they are.
Forget about 40 moa bases, no need and they would look like hell. Buy a 3.5-15 NXS or 4-16 Nikon Tactical or 6.5-20 Leupold LR and you are set.
